Prince · Batman [1989]
Ready for the crush
[chorus]
Every time you kiss me, lemon crush
Nay, I can't resist thee, lemon crush
Every time you do me, such a rush
Ooh, it goes right through me, lemon crush
All it takes is a little bitty
Of your ooh pretty, pretty
And I'm the wildest in the city
Ooh pretty, pretty one
Come on, come on
I'm ready for the crush
[chorus]
If I'm workin' at my jobba
I'm the victim, you're the robba
No matter how much I try to stoppa
I can't help thinkin' about cha
Lemon crush, I'm ready for the crush
[chorus]
Every time we, ooh baby, I get such a rush
Lemon crush

I'm running out of things to call your (lemon crush)
Don't wanna do without your
Ain't no doubt about your (lemon crush)
I want to scream and shout your

Lemon crush ['crush' repeated over and over]

Ready for the crush

Every time you do me, do me baby
Lemon crush
